Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

• Add the honey, olive oil, crushed red pepper and salt to the bowl with the sweet potatoes, together until the potatoes are coated.
• Place the potatoes evenly on the lined baking sheet scraping any of the olive oil mixture on the baking sheet too, also making sure the potatoes are laying flat on the baking sheet.
• Roast the potatoes on the bottom rack of the oven, turning gently one time about half-way through. Total time is 35-45 minutes, which will differ depending on your oven. Look for fork-tender wedges that are slightly brown and crispy on the edges and sides at 35 minutes, and add time accordingly.

• OPTIONAL OUTDOOR GRILLING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THIS RECIPEHeat the grill (you'll need direct heat that's approximately 350 degrees) and prep the sweet potatoes by cutting them in 1/2 wedges as noted above. Put the potates in a medium-sized bowl, and drizzle with just enough olive oil to coat them. Sprinkle with a little salt and toss one more time. Place the wedges on the grill, cover them and cook until light grill marks appear, 4-5 minutes, then rotate to the other side. Continue rotating until the potatoes are tender, which will depend on the heat of your grill, but approximately 5-7 more minutes. In the same bowl you just used, continue with the recipe and add the honey, olive oil, red pepper flakes and salt, whisking the ingredients together with a fork to combine. When the sweet potatoe wedges are done, add them to the bowl and quickly toss to coat, then tranfer the potatoes to a serving dish and serve with the yogurt sauce on the side or drizzled on top.
